At The National Capital

By John W. Kell*

Washington, D.C., July 23 Within a few months thousands of addit­ional draftees will be taken into the army from Oregon, The reason Is that the war department plans doubling the present size of the army and sending enough troops to Europe for a second front. Arrange­ments for the second front are now under way and this has been one of the Important matters discussed at the secret conference of Prime Min­ister Winston Churchill and Presi­dent Roosevelt. It was also discus­sed at the conference of the presi­dent and Foreign Minster Molotov when the Russian was in the nat­ional capital.

In anticipation for the second frnt expeditionary force the quart­ermaster’s department has been on a spending orgy freezing food and clothing for the soldiers. Tons of supplies will be required for each soldier. There will be fewer canned goods on grocery shelves; no woolen blankets or suits in the stores; less coffee. First of everything, of course, must be furnished the troops; civ­ilians must take second place, as Is natural in war times.

In the building up of the armed forces there has been reclassificat­ion of all with dependents. Hereto­fore a dependent had kept a sel­ectee from being taken into the service, but so great will be the de­mand for more troops that Invasion of the ranks of married men and of single men with a dependent will be made. As a rule the man working in a war industry, such as shipyard, will be kept there, but as women are infiltei eu into industry, many of the men will* be called to the colors. It is all a prase in the changing life which is sweeping the United States.

I t is said that the cantonment now under construction at Corvallis will be the largest in' the United States. It will be several months be­fore the troops begin arriving. Esti­mates vary as to the number of soldiers that will be stationed at the Corvallis camp, but it is said that it will contain more people than the entire population of any city in Oregon outside the metro­politan area of Portland.

Notwithstanding that Senator Homer T. Bone of Washington in­sists that the Columbia power aut-

On the other hand, the state granges of Washington and Oregon are sup­porting that bill as are cehtain PUDs in the two states. Rep. Walter M. Pierce, a public ownership man, told the committee he favors the bill but it must be amended, for he prefers a local board rather than the secretary of the interior in charge, and he does not want to subsidize the reclamation feature of Grand Coulee.

the northwest. The committee will resume hearings in September but it is not likely to go to the north­west to take testimony as is being urged.

Airplane carriers, never before built in Oregon, will be rolling off the ways in a feiw months. The Kaiser outfit in Portland will have a contract to produce two score of these small, speedy carriers, each to carry about 30m fighting planes. All of the carriers are to be completed and delivered by the end of 1943. There is such a rush for carriers that all larger types of warships will be pushed aside tem­porarily to make room for them.

Rarios will soon be hard to get, but Nelson Rockefeller, coordina­tor of inter-American affairs, in­tends distributing free in Central and South America sets manufac­tured in the United states. Also he will print and distribute a weekly, similar to Life, gratis to the people of Latin America. He will spend $3.600,000 this fiscal year on radio entertainment; $2,700,00 on free moving pictures; he will subsidize Latin-American newspapers to print favorable reports of the United States. This much has leaked out, but in handling the $28,000,000 on appropriation Senator McKellar said Rockefeller’s testimony was not printed in committee hearing “be­cause it was thought it would not be beneficial to the United States” to reveal what Rockefeller will do with the money. Senator McNary tried, inefectively, to ascertain what
